PHILIP BARLOW DISB Associate Commissioner for Insurance

“Although I wasn’t sure what to expect, when I got to the DCCAH office and was able to see the wide variety of work available, I quickly settled on two criteria – I wanted work that I found interesting and work that was representative of the diversity of artists working in the District. The work selected for the Department of Insurance, Securities and Banking includes a diversity of work by age, gender, race, sexual orientation and artistic experience. Lisa Marie [Thalhammer]’s King series stood out as work for our Department because not only was the work visually striking even though small in size, but also the playing card theme seemed appropriate for a financial regulator’s office.”
